The Santalaceae family includes the tree known as sandalwood. It is well-known for its fragrant wood and essential oils, which are frequently found in cosmetics, fragrances, and aromatherapy. Although it is indigenous to South Asia, sandalwood is also grown in other regions of the world, such as Australia, Hawaii, and Indonesia. Here are some details about the sandalwood plant.
The grayish-brown bark of sandalwood trees, which can reach heights of 12 meters, is present. The small, yellow or purplish-brown flowers are accompanied by oval-shaped leaves. Sandalwood comes from a tree with heavy, heavy-yellow wood. Its distinctive aroma is highly prized.
Numerous applications exist for sandalwood. The essential oil is extracted from the wood and used in candles, soaps, and fragrances. Cosmetics such as face masks and scrubs use sandalwood powder. Due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial qualities, sandalwood is also utilized in traditional medicine.
Because sandalwood is such a valuable plant, its extraction has resulted in overexploitation and illegal trade. Sandalwood has been designated as a vulnerable species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and numerous nations have put laws in place to safeguard the tree.

Sandalwood matures in about 15 to 20 years. To maintain a straight trunk and healthy growth during this period, the tree should undergo regular pruning.
By using steam distillation, sandalwood oil is extracted from the tree's heartwood. To extract the oil, the wood is chipped and submerged in water before being passed through by steam. After being separated from the water, the oil is then cleaned.
